Not happy with recent experience

Greetings, been with telkom for past 3-4 years, never missed a payment, as payments are via debit order. N i get paid on da 25th, if ts saturday, their debit monday. So i hv nevwr had a problem. Now this month, their choose to debit on da 24th, which obviously i wont have funds, and only realise that there is a problem, when 3 of my fellow work mates made calls to telkom, as to why their debited on the 24th, cz we dnt hv funds on that date. So their all got diff explanations. So i decide to call, n was told their will redebit by first consultant. I waited for a day or two. Den made a call since no debit went theough, n was told no such will happend, system doesnt allow, so i must do eft n email proof, so fuming as i was, i did eft, n emailed. I have proof of emails. Called to confirm n spoke to third agent. Ho advised i forward email too. Did dat, then few hours later, got response from twlkom team that eft proof was recieved. Next morning, debit goes through. So now im charged twice. So i call to get an explanation as to where to from here. Teamleader was rude, not giving me way forward, but just being rude. So here i am confused, i did make eft, but stil got debited. N instead of an apology and refund request, i get told A B and C. So till now i dont know what to do, who to call, to get clarity as to whats happening with the double payments. And an official apology. Please help

So today i wake to check my latest emails, and i find my telkom statement, and this time im being charged for a fee which i was told by telkom agencies that i will not be charged for, an amount of R202, which states its a late fee etc. And again i will ask this, why was i being debited on the 24 when it states clearly that i get pain on 25th, which means debit must be on da 25th or after, as ul have been doing for the past 4 years plus. As a loyal client, who has never missd not even one payment, a client who has renewed his contract coz i prefer telkom. But with such happening, i believe there is no respect for us as clients. As till today, i have not recieved a call, regarding my double payment last month. Instead of fixing what happend in august, i get an invoice with more fees then i ussualy budget for when it comes to telkom bills... This is not on. This contract, needs to be closed, telkom must pay it off, as i dnt wanna continue being a telkom client, cause what i have experience these past few days has been hell. Having to pay bank extra fees, now telkom doing same, when its the billing department at fault. So im done with telkom, sort it out.
